Further adding to the idolatrous associations of this profane symbol is the fact that it was constructed
of 927 tons of dark bronze which was stripped from the roof of the Pantheon in the year 1633. Thus,
the very material from which it was constructed had a history of idolatrous usage. Hundreds of pages
could be filled documenting the idolatrous images and rites of Roman Catholicism. What becomes
readily apparent is that the Pope, the man who bears the title of Pontifex Maximus today, continues
to serve as the chief proponent of the gods of ancient Rome. He remains “the king of heathendom.”
Although the focus of this book is not Roman Catholicism, much can be discerned about Satan’s
success in corrupting Judaism as one looks at the abomination of Rome which is Satan’s corruption
of Christianity. Talmudic and Kabbalistic Judaism has departed as far from the faith of Abraham and
Moses as Roman Catholicism has deviated from the faith of the apostles of Christ. Satan has been
successful in suborning both Judaism and Christianity. In many instances he has introduced identical
elements of his Luciferian worship into both groups. One of the most visible evidences of this
common adoption of Satanic symbols are the caps worn by both the Roman Catholic clergy and
Jewish believers.

The Hebrew word kippah means “dome.” Seeing that the Jewish kippah has no foundation in the
Bible, either in the Old Testament, or the New Testament, we must look to other sources to discover
its origin. The Jews themselves admit that the kippah has no Biblical foundation.
The tradition to wear a kippah is not derived from any biblical passage. Rather, it is a custom which
evolved as a sign of our recognition that there is Someone “above” us who watches our every act.
The Talmud (Shabbat 156b) relates that a woman was once told by astrologers that her son is
destined to be a thief. To prevent this from happening, she insisted that he always have his head
covered, to remind him of G-d’s presence and instill within him the fear of heaven. Once, while
sitting under a palm tree, his headcovering fell off. He was suddenly overcome by an urge to eat a
fruit from the tree, which did not belong to him. It was then that he realized the strong effect which
the wearing of a kippah had on him.

What is observed in this explanation is that the wearing of the kippah was originated by the Jewish rabbis
